... the massive Water Buffalo entering the River. At the first try, it had to be driven back to the shore because of a leak at the emergency exit door.

Hot News from Corowa!

Just heard from Jan, that the last count of vehicles attending was 195.......sounds like it was a good show. There were two thunderstorms there on Sat. afternoon.

Well done

Of the number no less than 41 were CMPs, easily beating our Guinness World Record (albeit unofficially) of 34 set in 2002.

Oh yes, and the rain p15ssed down too, although not on the parade or swap meet fortunately.

Default Home already

Lunch time Sunday, and its all over and back at home (massive 30 minute drive for me!).
Scored a ride in the Buffalo (maaagnificent), 1st drive in a White scout Car (Felt right at home in that.....), put a few more faces to MLU names, and of course saw Bob and Phoenix in action for the first time: don't think we'll ever get that smile off his face.
No pics as my camera did not survive the first day, so am waiting to see everyone elses.
Hats of to KVE crew for an outstanding effort. (Marshaling for the parade worked a treat).
Rich

Default Hi Richard

Don't worry - we've shot plenty!

Lots of interviews this year from some interesting people.

It's turned into a bit of a ghost town here now. I'm leaving in the morning as I still have a few interviews to do.
